- Description
- The aim of this book is to make visible the intentionality behind the 'forgetting' of European women's contributions during the period between the two world wars in the context of politics, culture and society. It also seeks to analyse women's agency in the construction and reconstruction of Europe and its nation states after the First World War, and thus to articulate ways in which the writing of women's history necessarily entails the rewriting of everyone's history. .By showing that the erasure of women's texts from literary and cultural history was not accidental but was ideologically motivated, the essays explicitly and implicitly contribute to debates surrounding canon formation. Other important topics are women's political activism during the period, antifascism, the contributions made by female journalists, the politics of literary production, genre, women's relationship with and contributions to the avant-garde, women's professional lives, and women's involvement in voluntary associations. The chapter about the Netherlands is about Dutch women writers between the wars.

- Description
- This book analyses the literary production of Irene Némirovsky (1903-1942) literary production in its relationship to the literary and cultural context of the inter-war period in France. It examines topics of central importance to our understanding of the literary field in France in the period, such as the close relationship between politics and literature: the historical, political, cultural and personal legacies of the First World War: the so-called ‘crisis of the novel’ and the attempt to create and develop new narrative forms: the phenomenon of Russian emigration to Paris in the wake of the Russian Revolution and Civil War: the possibilities for the creation of a French-Jewish identity and mode of writing: and the threat of fascism and the approach of the Second World War.

- Description
- Modernity tends to privilege masculine-connoted characteristics and has generated a conceptualization of human subjectivity emphasizing these qualities. Yet the costs of this conception of human selfhood are high, and at modernity's most acute moments of historical crisis, writers and artists can be seen turning to feminine-connoted figurations -- nature, tradition, myth and spirituality, intuition, relationality, flux. Feminist critiqueshave viewed cultural history as male-generated and 'phallocentric,' in need of a feminine corrective. The innovation of this book is to examine these two gendered perspectives side by side, investigating the culturally symbolic significance of gender in post 1945 German language literature via a sequence of paired readings of major, thematically related texts by male and female authors, Ingeborg Bachmann and Max Frisch and Christa Wolf, Elfriede Jelinek and Rainald Goetz: and Heiner and Christa Wolf.
